FOREWORD

HE advance of knowledge brings burdens as well as rewards. In archeology it is usual for the first surprise of new discoveries to be followed by the recognition of a few distinct phases which in their succession give a rough and ready outline of cultural development. But if work continues, an increasing number of transitional phenomena swamp the clarity of such divisions; the blacks and whites appear to be variously shaded grays; the blunt succession must be reinterpreted as a series of gradual changes, as the interplay of survival and innovation. In the present publication Mr. Delougaz has undertaken this laborious task in dealing with the pottery found on our four sites between the years 1930 and 1938. The advance achieved can best be judged by comparing his results with the two publications which represent the earlier state of our knowledge: Studies in Ancient Oriental Civilization No. 4 (1932) and OrientalInstitute Communications No. 20 (1936). If the picture drawn in the present publication is new in that it reflects the course of the actual development, it shares, necessarily, the latter's complexity. At the very outset Mr. Delougaz was faced with the difficulty that no satisfactory method for dealing with such a vast amount of material was known. Flinders Petrie had evolved a purely empirical system, which worked well enough within narrow limits, but which lacked precision and could be neither refined nor expanded because of its illogical, purely practical nature. Yet-and this is a measure of Petrie's genius-his system has not been improved upon or superseded for forty years. But the quantity and the variety of the pottery with which Mr. Delougaz had to deal made the adoption of another system imperative. And we believe that he has succeeded in evolving a completely new type of classification which is logical and yet adaptable to any given group of ceramic remains. It is, moreover, as simple as one may reasonably expect of a system capable of doing justice to all the diversification of the potters' produce. In the first chapter the system of classification is explained; it is applied to our discoveries in Plates 140-99. In the second chapter our pottery, from the Protoliterate period to the age of Hammurabi, is described period by period. In the third chapter readers will find the essential features of this ceramic development summarized, not only as it is evidenced by our own discoveries, but also by those made elsewhere. The catalogue of pottery forms also includes references to similar pieces found on other sites. Thus the student of comparative archeology, the fieldworker, and the curator of a museum may, we hope, be able to utilize our material for their several purposes with the least difficulty. We hope furthermore that they may be stimulated to undertake the study of those subjects which, as Mr. Delougaz indicates in his third chapter, invite further research. H.

THE

PREFACE

aim of the present publication is to present as complete a record as possible of the pottery recovered from the four ancient sites of Khafajah, Tell Asmar, Tell Agrab, and Ishchali in the Diyala region. The majority of the material was discovered by the Iraq Expedition of the Oriental Institute, which held the concession for excavations in this region from 1930 to 1937. During that period the various branches of the Expedition conducted seven consecutive campaigns at Khafajah (1930-37), six campaigns at Tell Asmar (1930-35), two at Tell Agrab (1935-37), and two at Ishchali (1934-36). Two more seasons at Khafajah under the joint auspices of the University Museum (University of Pennsylvania) and the American Schools of Oriental Research, in the spring of 1937 and the winter of 1937/38, brought to light a considerable amount of additional material, particularly some fine specimens of polychrome "Jamdat Nasr" type and "scarlet ware" pottery. By mutual consent of the above mentioned institutions this additional material is included in the present publication. By including in a single volume the pottery from the four sites we follow the general plan for publishing the archeological results of the Iraq Expedition-a plan that aims to present these results in a series of books, each devoted to a single category of finds from all the sites and disregarding, as far as possible, the accidentals in the progress of digging. Unlike a work devoted to the interpretation of previously published archeological finds, for which the material can be chosen to suit a particular line of argument and all that is not essential to this argument may be ignored, the present publication, being primarily a record of new discoveries in the field, allows no such freedom of selection. Indeed, the more we learn of Near Eastern pottery, the clearer it becomes that little value can be attached to preconceived abstract theories as to which of the characteristics of a newly discovered group of pottery may prove archeologically significant; hence, we found no justification for omitting any material which was adequately recorded in the field. This and the fact that our finds are the result of an aggregate of nineteen digging campaigns at four different sites, each containing ruins of widely differing dates and character, account for the considerable bulk and variety of material included in this volume. The scope and character of this material made it impractical to deal in the text with every individual specimen recorded. Consequently, we endeavored to adopt a method of publication which, in addition to a general chronological survey, should allow for the presentation of the available information concerning each of the recorded specimens in a comparatively simple manner. For this purpose a system of classification had first to be devised to serve as a basis for cataloguing and for a systematic arrangement of the drawings of pottery forms. The principles of such a system are the subject of the first chapter. Their outlines were first proposed by the writer in 1935 and were subsequently applied by him in recording the pottery found at Khafajah. In the last season of the Iraq Expedition in the field (1936/37) Mr. Seton Lloyd accepted this method for dealing with some of the pottery from Tell Agrab. Guided by the experience afforded by these practical applications the writer considerably modified some details, especially those which were originally based on theoretical considerations, to suit the specific character of the pottery actually found. The writer is well aware of the fact that the resulting system, as presented here, may have certain limitations and shortcomings. If, nevertheless, an appeal is made that archeologists who may find enough merit in this system to justify its application to their own material ix

PREFACE should refrain from introducing individual alterations and improvements, it is only to prevent the hopeless confusion that must follow such a course. For, to quote the scholar who was the first to attempt a systematic classification of pottery: "Such principles may be arbitrary, but yet they must be kept up, or else a corpus would become so confused that identification of forms would be difficult."' The second chapter is devoted to a general description of the pottery in chronological order. In it we examine the more important types and attempt to trace their development and disappearance. The pottery from the various sites is treated as a whole, since the distance between them is not great enough to warrant the surmise of a large degree of independent local development. Indeed, in our estimate, the variations in types of similar date from the different sites are no greater than those found in different parts of a single site and are largely accounted for by accidental elements in the excavations. By examining the pottery from the four sites for each period some of the gaps in the material from one site are filled in by evidence obtained from another. The third chapter is devoted to general observations and conclusions. The remainder of the book consists of a list of pottery forms by periods and phases, catalogues, indexes, and illustrations. A general plan of each of the excavated sites and a map showing the location of the major sites in Mesopotamia are also included. Although the aim is to present our pottery as completely as possible, the present publication is by no means an exhaustive study covering all the archeological conclusions and implications which can be derived from the material. Such a study must be based to a large extent on comparisons with related evidence from other sites and, in view of the range of our finds, would be far beyond the scope of the present work. For the most part parallels from other sites are mentioned in the text only when relevant for the better understanding of our own material and in a few instances when the new evidence necessitates modification of previously held views. When references for such parallels are not given along with the discussion, they may be found in the catalogue of pottery forms. This catalogue is arranged according to the system of classification described in the first chapter and is printed opposite the drawings of pottery forms (Pls. 140-199). The colored plates (Pls. 1-16), the photographs (Pls. 17-132), and a group of drawings of designs on painted pottery (Pls. 133-39) are each arranged roughly in chronological order to correspond to the text of chapter ii. The field number, exact provenience, and date of all sherds included in these illustrations are given in the catalogue of illustrated sherds and other clay objects (pp. 162-66), which is arranged in numerical order according to plate number. To some extent the various parts of this book are independent as a result of our wish to meet the needs of the general student, who may be interested only in a chronological survey of the pottery, and of the specialist, who may require detailed information concerning some specific aspects of the material. Yet, essentially the different parts are complementary, for only their combination presents a complete record of our finds. Work of several members of the Oriental Institute's Iraq Expedition, of the Joint Expedition of the University Museum and the American Schools of Oriental Research, and of the Oriental Institute's staff in Chicago is embodied in this volume. The photographs of the pottery from Tell Asmar, Tell Agrab, and Ishchali were taken by Mrs. Rigmor Jacobsen. The work of Dr. Conrad Preusser, Dr. Neilson C. Debevoise, Dr. Calvin W. McEwan, Count Alexander zu Eltz, Mr. Leslie Grant, Dr. Abraham Bergman, and Mr. John Tobler is represented in the photographs of the Khafajah pottery. The color plates are reproduced after paintings by Miss G. Rachel Levy, Dr. Alberto Davico, and Mr. Bartow Miiller. To the schematic drawings nearly all the members of the expeditions contributed at one time or 1W. M. Flinders Petrie, Corpus of PrehistoricPottery and Palettes (London, 1921) p. 5.

another. However, the great majority were drawn by Miss G. Rachel Levy at Tell Asmar and Mr. Hamilton D. Darby at Khafajah. Mr. Luin W. Hough has photographed several of the specimens which are in the Oriental Institute Museum and has moreover contributed most of the prints used for reproduction. Mr. J. Swanson of Work Projects Administration Official Project No. 665-54-3-257 and Mr. Carl Dinella transferred field drawings to make up the plates of pottery forms. Miss Elizabeth Stefanski and Mrs. Hilde Erwin assisted in preparing parts of the manuscript. Mrs. Ruth S. Brookens, Miss Nancy Purtill, and Mrs. Elizabeth B. Hauser spared no effort in helping to shape different parts of the manuscript and shared in the tedious task of checking the text and catalogues against the original field records. Mrs. Hauser, in the final editing of the book as a whole and in seeing it through the press, contributed valuable suggestions for its improvement. To all those mentioned as well as to his colleagues in the field and at home who let him benefit by their suggestions and friendly criticism, the writer is deeply indebted for their respective contributions to this publication.

A SYSTEM OF POTTERY CLASSIFICATION

T

POTTERY IN ARCHEOLOGICAL RESEARCH

HE remains of earthenware vessels scattered on the surface of innumerable mounds in the Near East must have been associated since time immemorial by successive generations of local inhabitants with ruined and abandoned earlier settlements. However, since of all products of human industry there is hardly one of less material value than broken pottery, it is not surprising that potsherds failed to attract special attention until modern times, when new and wider concepts of history and the emergence of archeology as a science focused the interest of explorers and excavators on these humble remains, which gradually came to be considered of fundamental importance in archeological research. Several factors and characteristics combine to contribute to the paramount importance of pottery in archeology. The potter's craft being one of the most widespread, ancient, and persistent of human crafts, using the most accessible of raw materials-earth and water-its products abound wherever traces of ancient civilizations are encountered. The brittleness of earthenware makes it difficult for ordinary vessels to remain whole and in use for any considerable length of time, but the chemical stability and the lack of intrinsic value of the materials as such help to preserve most of the broken vessels at the localities where they were manufactured and used. Consequently pottery, more than any other class of objects, is likely to remain in its proper archeological context. The constant need for new vessels to replace broken ones and the fact that the raw material, while cheap, imposes little restriction on the craftsman in his choice of form and decoration make his product susceptible to change of fashion, taste, or tradition, reflecting the significant developments in the contemporary material culture. Among the 19th century's archeological pioneers in Western Asia we believe Loftus was the first to recognize and clearly express the value of pottery for dating purposes,' though it seems that neither he nor any of his contemporaries attempted to make use of this recognition. In time, however, the archeological value of pottery became more generally accepted and has, in fact, been repeatedly defined and discussed with various degrees of competence, clarity, and eloquence. 2 Simultaneously the keeping of methodical records of even ordinary household pottery found at ancient sites gradually came to be considered as a necessary routine in all archeological excavations or explorations under scientific auspices. Thus not only is the value of pottery generally recognized nowadays, but (as in many other instances when a new and potent medium of research is discovered, be it in the realm of abstract ideas or in the sphere of physical phenomena) the limits of its usefulness are not infrequently exaggerated. For example, far-reaching theories concerning cultural and ethnic movements have been based by some archeologists on pottery evidence that seems to others extremely flimsy or entirely irrelevant. From this point of view Frankfort's assertion that "the abuse of ceramic evidence considerably surpasses its use" 3 is hardly disputable. Such abuses cannot detract, of course, from x"The invention of the potter appears to have been racked in designing new forms, and their endless variety throughout Chaldaea may eventually prove of much use in determining the age of the ruins where each occurs" (W. K. Loftus, Travels and Researches in Chaldaeaand Susiana [New York, 1857] p. 201). 2See e.g. the very clear formulation of the subject by John L. Myres in CambridgeAncient History I (2d ed.; Cambridge, 1928) 69-71. 3 Frankfort, Studies I iii.

POTTERY FROM THE DITALA REGION the objective value of pottery as a medium of archeological research. Nor is the ultimate correctness or incorrectness of a theory the sole criterion by which its scientific value is to be judged; for it is a commonplace that a working theory depends on the factual evidence available at any stage of knowledge, and it is therefore to be expected that with the increase of such evidence theories will be modified or even fundamentally revised. As to controversial theories resulting from various interpretations of the same facts, their comparative merits can best be judged when the principles of interpretation on which each is founded are clearly determined. 4 However, the first concern of an excavator, regardless of his preferences in interpretations and theories, is to present the facts concerning his finds as completely and accurately as possible. This entails not only adequate recording in the field but also a system classification that will make the recorded material easily accessible for comparative studies. The more extensive and varied the material, the more imperative the adoption of a method of classification becomes. It is with the principles of such a system that we now propose to deal. BASES FOR POTTERY CLASSIFICATION While any system of classification is to some extent arbitrary, the general character of the one to be chosen must be predetermined by its probable use. In our case, the nature of probable comparative studies of pottery has to be considered. There are two distinct points of view from which such studies can be undertaken; one may be termed "geographical," the other "stratigraphical." The first, which is concerned mainly with the comparison of material from different geographical regions, was more commonly undertaken in the earlier stages of Near Eastern archeology and is still of fundamental importance in works of general character. In this type of study conclusions are reached mainly on the basis of similaritieswhich are considered relevant. In the second type of study the aim is to differentiate between the pottery of various strata in the same locality in order to obtain a basis for comparative dating and to trace, whenever possible, the development of pottery types from earlier into later times. Consequently it is necessary to pay attention to more subtle, less clearly defined details. The important characteristic of such a study in contrast with the first type is that it emphasizes dissimilarities. An archeological report dealing with pottery from a single site, or even, like the present volume, with pottery from a few sites within one region, presents no serious geographical problems, while the elucidation of the stratigraphic problems is usually one of its principal aims. Consequently, the method of classification employed should be directed not so much toward grouping together related types of pottery as toward providing a basis for distinguishing and identifying various degrees of dissimilarity among them. Having thus determined the general character of the system required, we must choose a set of features to serve as a basis for classification. The characteristics by which pottery vessels can be distinguished may be divided into four major groups: (a) material, (b) technique of manufacture, (c) surface finish, including decoration, and (d) form. MATERIAL

By "material" we mean the physical and chemical properties of the finished product, which vary, of course, according to the quality of the clay used, the process of purification or levigation employed, the impurities accidentally or purposely added to the raw paste, and the method of firing. Even though under some circumstances the combination of these elements is such as to produce very distinct results which may be characteristic for certain regions or * An illuminating discussion of pottery interpretation, i.e., of the various characteristics which are significant in the comparative study of pottery, is to be found ibid. pp. 1-21, even though later discoveries have caused Frankfort to modify some of the views expressed there.

oi.uchicago.edu

A SYSTEM OF POTTERY CLASSIFICATION periods, it is apparent that within restricted regions, where the same sources of clay and the same methods of paste preparation and firing were generally used for considerable lengths of time, the variations discernible in the material are not sufficient to provide a basis for a classification that will answer our purpose. TECHNIQUE OF MANUFACTURE

From the point of view of the technique of their manufacture, pottery vessels can be divided into hand-fashioned, hand-turned, wheel-turned, and mold-made. The first group includes all vessels that were fashioned by hand in such a manner as to result in perceptible asymmetry. A certain number of distinct processes come under this term, but since they are not easily distinguishable in the final product they need not be enumerated here. In the second group we include all vessels which were turned in the process of being fashioned but not on a precisely centered apparatus. Some of the more carefully manufactured vessels of this group are not easily distinguishable from those of the wheel-turned group. The latter includes vessels fashioned on a well centered turning apparatus, that is, on some sort of potter's wheel. A common property of such vessels is that their horizontal sections are circular; the centers of these sections form a straight line which is the vertical axis of the vessel and which coincides with the axis of the wheel while the vessel is being fashioned. Many types of potters' wheels are known, but only those varieties which can be traced in their effects on the final product, such as the slow wheel versus the fast wheel, interest us. Other distinctions which are occasionally made in archeological publications, such as those between wheels turned by hand or by foot and speculations as to whether a wheel was weighted or turned by an assistant, would be of some interest in a monograph dealing with the history of this important tool but are irrelevant for our purpose. Mold-made vessels are extremely rare among early Mesopotamian pottery and are mentioned here only for the sake of completeness. A combination of various ways of manufacture may occasionally be found in one vessel. For instance, the body of a vessel may be wheel-turned, while its base or its accessories, such as spout and handle, may have been fashioned by hand or made in a mold. It is clear that although the mode of manufacture is an important feature of each vessel, the possible variations are not numerous enough to afford a basis for a detailed classification. SURFACE FINISH AND DECORATION

Much more satisfactory results can be obtained by basing a classification on the character and appearance of the surfaces of vessels. Indeed, most of the existing comparative studies of pottery are based on the various themes and styles employed in decoration. However, such a basis of classification would exclude all plain vessels, which in many instances are in the vast majority, if not the only ones available for study. Thus we come to the last group of pottery characteristics, namely the forms of vessels. FORM

Form is not only a property inherent in all vessels without exception but also one whose "endless variety" 5 affords an adequate basis for detailed classification. 6 It has rightly been pointed out that form is the "most essential feature, as it is directly dependent on the use which is to be made of the vessel, and which is the reason for its existence." 7 Furthermore, the

6See Loftus, loc. cit. 6 Needless to say, this applies only to those vessels of which enough remains to enable us to restore their original shapes with some degree of accuracy. The usefulness of "shapeless" potsherds, which is by no means negligible in normal archeological research, is obviously restricted to the study of material, manufacture, and surface finish or decoration. 7

POTTERY FROM THE DITALA REGION form of a vessel is determined not merely by utilitarian and technical considerations; it also reflects, to no small extent, tradition and aesthetic preference, which are among the most important elements of all ancient civilizations. CLASSIFICATION AND DESIGNATION OF FORMS The acceptance of form as the main basis for pottery classification raises two problems. The first is how to divide the innumerable variety of forms into well defined groups, and the second is what system of designation to employ for specifying them. Various attempts have been made in both directions, mostly in dealing with comparatively small quantities of pottery. However, the methods evolved are not entirely satisfactory, especially for large groups, which continue to grow with new discoveries and thus, theoretically at least, can be considered as unlimited. Such commonly employed terms as "jug," "jar," "cooking-pot," "saucer," "plate," etc. are not only limited in number far below the need but can be misleading since they may imply knowledge of the use-often doubtful-to which any given vessel was put. Designation by letters or numerals has been adopted in some cases. But, while adequate in number and not implying specific use, this method is purely arbitrary and lacks any logical relationship between designation and form. The latter defect can be eliminated by use of a system of designation by decimal numbers somewhat similar to that devised by Dewey for library classification. 8 In such a system a definite meaning can be attributed to each of the symbols used, and it has the further advantage of allowing for insertion of new numbers when the need arises. The only requisite for such a system is the division of a theoretically unlimited number of objects (books in one instance, pottery forms in our case) into ten major groups, each of these into ten subgroups, etc. Our definitions of the ten major groups of pottery shapes are based on the geometric elements which form the actual receptacles. Such features as openings, bases, handles, spouts, etc., which, of course, also affect the general appearance of a complete vessel, are not yet taken into account. Moreover, inasmuch as turned vessels constitute the vast majority of the pottery with which we are concerned, we may base our analysis chiefly on the geometric properties of wheel-turned utensils. Hand-turned vessels, that is, those fashioned on an imperfect wheel, may be regarded in principle as approximating those manufactured on a true wheel, the only difference being in the degree of regularity. Every wheel-turned utensil may be considered as consisting of an infinite number of superimposed extremely thin rings whose centers lie on a straight line which is the vertical axis of the finished vessel and which coincides with the axis around which the wheel revolves while the vessel is being shaped. The manner in which the radii of these rings vary with the height produces the distinct shape of each utensil. 9 For instance, a vessel in which all the rings are of equal radii is cylindrical; if the radii increase proportionally to the height, the vessel is conical and tapers toward the base; if, on the contrary, the radii decrease in direct proportion to the height, the vessel is also conical but tapers toward the opening. When the radii of these infinitely thin rings increase or decrease otherwise than in direct proportion to the height, the walls of the vessel are curved inward or outward in various ways.' 0 Naturally the variation of the radii with the height may change abruptly at various points, thus producing in one vessel combinations of some or all of the above-mentioned geometric characteristics. In other words, the shape of a turned vessel may be considered as consisting of approximately cylindrical,

A SYSTEM OF POTTERY CLASSIFICATION conical, and inward- or outward-curving surfaces. These geometric elements and their various combinations may, therefore, serve as a basis for classification of the great majority of pottery forms. Pottery vessels which have other than circular horizontal sections are classified on a different principle (see p. 10). The characteristics of a vessel's shape can be conveniently examined in adequate graphic records, to which, indeed, one is limited in publication. The most important of such records is a schematic drawing, the simplest being a vertical projection of the contours of the vessel on a plane." However, since this method fails to record the thickness of the walls and the interior contours, a somewhat more elaborate graph representing half of a vertical section of the vessel, passing through its axis, is commonly used. Naturally any convenient scale can be employed, but for purposes of comparison it is preferable to use the same scale for as large a group of vessels as possible. 12 DEFINITION OF TEN MAJOR GROUPS

We may now proceed to divide all pottery forms into ten major groups marking each group by a digit, from 0 to 9. The selection of the particular form to be designated by each numeral

is an arbitrary matter. This being so, we preferred not to deviate greatly from a general principle established by Petrie, namely, the division of pottery into groups starting "from the most open, such as shallow saucers, to the most closed, such as bottles."" In this preference we were guided not only by our appreciation of Petrie's great contributions to the methodical study of pottery, but also by consideration of the fact that his principles are often followed, whether explicitly or not, by other archeologists. We consequently define the ten major groups as follows (the first eight are characterized by the shapes shown in Fig. 1): .0 .1

open vessels tapering toward the base vessels consisting of a combination of two open elements both wider at the top than at the bottom

vessels the whole or the main elements of which approach cylindrical forms vessels approximating conical shapes and tapering toward the opening (reverse of .0) and vessels consisting of combinations of two conical elements joined at their narrower parts vessels composed of two unequal elements joined at their wider parts, the center of gravity being nearer the opening than the base vessels similar to those of the previous group but with the angle between the two elements (body and shoulder) less marked and vessels approaching an ovoid, tapering toward the bottom vessels which may in general be considered as being composed of two elements of group .0 joined at their wider parts but which (in contrast to groups .4 and .5) show no marked difference in height between the two elements and are thus more nearly symmetrical, the center of gravity being near the middle vessels composed of two or three elements, which may merge into an ovoid but in all cases have the center of gravity of the whole nearer the base than the opening vessels with non-circular horizontal sections (i.e., vessels that were not turned, though parts of them may have been so made and joined together) vessels in the form of objects (models) or imitating organic forms (vegetal or animal) and unusual combinations DETAILED AND ABBREVIATED CLASSIFICATIONS

It is clear that definition of the ten major groups is but the first step in building up our system of classification, for each of these groups is only a theoretical approximation-a frame, as it were, into which some actual pottery shape will fit more closely than into others, without necessarily coinciding with it in its entire outline. (This is literally true of the contours shown in Figure 1.) On the basis of these general definitions a system can be developed in one of many ways. Theoretically it is possible to divide each group into ten subgroups, which in turn can be divided independently, and so on indefinitely, as need may be. Such procedure would preserve the main advantage of the decimal system, that is, the possibility of inserting an infinite number of new forms between any two already defined. In practice, however, one has to consider the increasing difficulty of memorizing such independently defined subdivisions, the distinctions between which would become less and less marked with each further step, and the possibility that the designations would become too long and unwieldy. It seems preferable therefore to limit the number of symbols contained in the designations in accordance with practical requirements and to attribute a definite meaning to each of the successive digits so that in all designations digits in the same position will represent the same characteristic. For very general purposes, such as the compilation of a complete corpus of pottery from a large region or the classification of large and varied museum collections, a detailed classification, employing a main designation with twelve or more symbols as well as additional composite markings (see pp. 19-22), can be used. For dealing with our own material, however, we have devised an abbreviated classification which we trust will meet the ordinary requirements of most archeologists. The designations employed in it consist of seven symbols-a letter and six digits. The subdivision of each of the ten major groups of forms and the definitions of the various symbols given below apply to this abbreviated classification. As to a more complete form of our system, we indicate (in reduced type) only the main lines along which it might be developed, since a detailed exposition would be outside the scope of the present publication.

regular cylinder corrugated cylinder

4 Arbitrarily we assign to the first (.00) group vessels in which the ratio of the difference between the maximum and minimum diameters to the total height is more than 2/5, and to the second group (.01) those vessels in which this ratio is equal to, or less than, 2/5. In other words, a being the maximum diameter, b the minimum diameter, and h the height, we have (a-b)/h > 2/5 for the first group, and (a-b)/h Z 2/5 for the second group. Since this ratio depends on the inclination of the vessel's walls, our definition of the two groups simply means that the first group contains all vessels of which the angle of inclination from the vertical, a, is such that tan. a > 0.2; i.e., a > 11* 18' 36", and the second group contains all vessels in which the angle of inclination is smaller. A way of determining without resorting to calculation to which of these two groups a vessel belongs is described below (p. 14, n. 18).

.4 Of the two elements forming vessels of this group the lower (body) is usually one of the forms coming under group .0, while the upper (shoulder) is normally one of the first four subgroups in .3; the subgroups are defined by the various combinations of such elements: .40 body .00 or .01, shoulder .30, with a wide angle between them .41 same as .40 but with a sharper angle between body and shoulder .42 body .02, .07, or .12, shoulder .32 .43 body as in .42, shoulder .30 or .31 .44 body .03 or .04, shoulder .32 .45 body .00 or .01, shoulder .31 .46 body .03 or .04, shoulder reverse of .08 .47 body .08, .12, .13, or .14, shoulder reverse of same .48 corrugated vessels of approximately ovoid shape .49 vessels consisting of more than two distinct conical elements

.5 The upper element (shoulder) of vessels in this group is nearly always of shape .31, and the differentiation between the various subgroups is based mainly on the shape of the lower part (body) and on the manner in which the two are joined: .50 body .03, shoulder .31, with a fairly wide angle between them (steep shoulder) .51 same as .50 but with a sharper angle between body and shoulder

body .04, shoulder .31 body and shoulder joined without producing a marked angle, body tapering rather sharply toward base .54 same as .53 except that body tapers less sharply .55 same as .53 and .54, with a less pronounced taper and no distinct line of separation between lower and upper parts .56 same as .53, .54, or .55 except that the shoulder is flat, approaching the horizontal near the opening .57 lower part .06, upper part .31, with no definite line of separation between them .58 similar to .57 with lower part widening near base .59 pear-shaped with wider part up .6 The subdivision of this group is based both on the form of the elements and on the manner in which they are joined: .60

two nearly equal parts whose forms may vary from .00 to .04, with the upper element upside down .61 lower part .00, .02, or .07, upper part .31 (i.e., reverse of .03, .04, or .06) .62 lower part .03 or .04, upper part .32 .63 more than two elements, the lower and upper belonging to group .0 or reverse and the middle part being any one of the first four shapes in group .2 .64 ellipsoidal (including spherical) with wide opening'1 .65 same as .64 with medium opening 15 .66 same as .64 with narrow opening 5 .67 ellipsoidal, narrowing fairly symmetrically toward base and opening (combination of .06's) .68 ellipsoidal element combined with one of the first four shapes of group .3 .69 combination of two ellipsoidal elements

.7 Since vessels assigned to this group usually consist of the same elements as those in groups .4 and .5, the only difference being that now the center of gravity is nearer the base, they can be defined in terms of corresponding shapes in those groups: .70 .71 .72 .73 .74 .75 .76 .77 .78 .79

6Wide, medium, and narrow openings are arbitrarily defined as follows: wide opening, with diameter more than .7 of maximum diameter of vessel; medium, with diameter between .4 and .7 of maximum diameter; narrow, less than .4 of maximum diameter. A simple way of determining these groups without resorting to calculation is described below (pp. 15f.).

.8 Vessels belonging to this group, being characterized by their noncircular horizontal sections, are subdivided according to the contours of these sections, which are usually taken at the maximum width of the vessel: .80 horizontal section ellipse or combination of two equal circular or elliptical elements .81 combination of two unequal circular or elliptical segments .82 any curve with one axis of symmetry .83 regular polygon or polygons with more than one axis of symmetry .84 polygon with one axis of symmetry .85 symmetrically fluted or ribbed .86 asymmetrical polygon or curve .87 like .86 but fluted or ribbed .88 multiple vessels (when possible designated according to shape of component vessels also) .89 other shapes falling under the general definition of group .8

.9 The last group is subdivided as follows: .90 .91 .92 .93 .94 .95 .96 .97 .98 .99

models of implements architectural models vegetal forms insect and reptile forms fish forms bird forms quadruped forms human forms combinations of inorganic forms other combinations

For purposes of more convenient immediate identification the above definitions are summarized graphically in Table I, in which each definition is represented by only one characteristic form. Each horizontal row represents a major group, and the corresponding cipher at the left is therefore the first digit of the identification mark. The second digit, by which any of the subgroups in a major group is identified, appears at the top of each vertical column. It is to be seen that on the whole the subdivision of each of the ten major groups is independent, there being no general implication attached to the second digit. However, for the sake of simplicity an attempt has been made to associate the various shapes in the vertical columns whenever possible. For instance, in the third column form .12 consists of two elements of .02; .32 is the reverse of .02; .42 consists of two elements, one .02 and the other .32, while .72 in turn is the reverse of .42. Likewise, .77 is the reverse of .57; .79, the reverse of .59; etc. PROPORTIONS

The most important distinction between the various shapes which correspond to any one of the above-defined subgroups is that of proportion. It is not sufficient, for instance, to denote a vessel as an ellipsoid, for this term includes both tall and squat ellipsoids; likewise a vessel identified as being of shape .07 may be a very shallow platter or a tall cup (Fig. 2). Thus the form of a vessel as identified by two digits remains vague unless its proportions are specified. The proportion most characteristic of any vessel is the ratio of its maximum height to its maximum width. It is clear that such ratios can vary indefinitely.

POTTERY FROM THE DITALA REGION In order to extend the decimal system of marking so as to designate the relation between height and width by a single digit it is necessary first to divide all possible ratios into ten groups and then to assign a digit to each. As a preliminary all theoretically possible forms are divided into two classes, "squat" and "tall." The first includes all forms in which the height is less than the width, the second all forms in which the height is equal to or more than the width. Each of these two classes is then subdivided into five groups. In the first class subdivi-

sion is based on the ratio of height to maximum width, and each of the five groups is marked by a digit, as follows: height less than 1/5 of maximum width height 1/5 up to 2/5 of width height 2/5 up to 3/5 of width height 3/5 up to 4/5 of width height 4/5 up to 5/5 of width In the second class subdivision is based on the ratio of maximum width to height, and the groups are marked thus: width more than 4/5 up to and including 5/5 of height width more than 3/5 up to and including 4/5 of height width more than 2/5 up to and including 3/5 of height width more than 1/5 up to and including 2/5 of height width equal to or less than 1/5 of height The greater the arithmetical value of the digit the greater the height of a vessel in proportion to its maximum width. The third digit in our abbreviated system of classification is thus 6 used to indicate the relation between height and maximum width of a vessel.' The above definitions are illustrated by the ten hypothetical vessels shown in Figure 2. They are all of shape .07 and identical in width, but they vary in height so as to fall into different proportion groups and are marked accordingly from .070 to .079.1" Theoretically any other 1*Except for forms .88, .89, and .9.

In the case of multiple vessels (.88) the third digit indicates the number of parts.

I It may be noted, by the way, that .078 and .079 are very close to forms .248 and .249.

oi.uchicago.edu

A SYSTEM OF POTTERY CLASSIFICATION general shape could replace .07 in this figure; thus, instead of any one definite shape we may simply examine a series of rectangles of the same width and varying heights (Fig. 3). The shaded areas in Figure 3 indicate the range of variation in height for each proportion group. In the first five rectangles these areas are equal, while in the last five the range increases very rapidly; indeed, in the tenth it extends from five times the width to infinity. This rapidly increasing range of heights in the last two groups is no great disadvantage in practice, for the taller the vessels, the less frequently they occur in reality; in fact, nearly all usable vessels are to be found in the first six or seven groups. The digit denoting the proportion of any given vessel can, of course, be determined arithmetically. However, by using a very simple instrument designed by the writer for this purpose, all calculation can be avoided and the third digit can be read off directly from a graphic repre!

sentation of the height and width of a vessel marked, at any scale, on rectangular co-ordinates. The instrument (Fig. 4) consists of a transparent triangle on which there is drawn a smaller isosceles right triangle. The base and altitude of the latter are each divided into five equal parts, which are numbered; the division points on each side are connected with the opposite apex. A second set of lines (dotted) and figures (italic) is obtained by dividing the altitude into ten equal parts. To determine the digit which denotes the proportion of a vessel the first set of lines and figures is employed. After the width and height are measured and marked at any convenient scale as abscissa and ordinate on rectangular co-ordinates, the triangle is placed with the side marked from 5 to 9 on the horizontal axis and the apex of the adjacent acute angle at right at the point marking the width. Now there are two possibilities: either the line connecting the points marking height and width will fall within the triangle, in which case the proper digit is that found beside the altitude of the triangle and applying to the segment within which the ordinate falls, or else this line will be outside the triangle. In the latter case the triangle has to be shifted so that the apex of its other acute angle is placed at the point marking the height of

oi.uchicago.edu

POTTERT FROM THE DITALA REGION the vessel and its altitude overlies the vertical axis; the required digit is that found along the base of the triangle and applying to the segment within which the abscissa falls. If one uses a schematic drawing of the vessel (see p. 5) instead of measurements obtained from the vessel itself, the digit representing proportion can be read off directly by inclosing the drawing in a rectangle, one side of which represents the maximum width and the other the height of the vessel (Figs. 5-6). After some practice the process can be further simplified by using only the lower right and the upper left corners of such an imaginery rectangle. 18

FIG. 4.-A

SCALE FOR DETERMINING THE CIPHERS WHICH DENOTE THE VARIOUS PROPORTIONS OF ANY VESSEL

While the ratio of height to width alone is specified in our abbreviated classification it is but one of several significant proportions of a vessel. The position of the maximum width in relation to height, the proportion of the width of the opening to the maximum width, and the ratio between the length of the neck and the total height are other elements which affect the appearance of a vessel. This is illustrated by the two hypothetical vessels (a and b) shown in Figure 7, which are of the same general form (.57) and of identical height and width, that is, of the same general proportion (7), but nevertheless differ considerably in appearance. This difference is due almost entirely to variation in the secondary 18 The same instrument can be used for distinguishing between vessels of groups .00 and .01 (see p. 7). For this pur-

pose the triangle has to be placed over a drawing of the vessel so that its upper vertex coincides with the upper left corner of the drawing and its perpendicular is parallel to the axis of the vessel. If the line representing the wall of the vessel falls between the perpendicular and the first line to the right of it (i.e., in section 9) or coincides with the latter, the vessel is of form .01. If the wall of the vessel falls to the right of that line, the vessel is of shape .00.

A SYSTEM OF POTTERT CLASSIFICATION proportions; that is, the position of the maximum diameter is relatively lower in a than in b, and the opening is proportionately narrower and the neck shorter in the latter than in a. Each of these secondary proportions also can be expressed by a single digit. For this purpose the larger of the two measurements is considered as a unit and the other as a decimal fraction of it. For instance, if the diameter at the mouth of the vessel is between 5/10 and 6/10 of its maximum diameter, the digit .5 will denote this proportion. Secondary proportions can be read off by means of our instrument by using the second set of lines and digits (dotted and italic in Fig. 4) and a schematic drawing of the vessel inclosed in a rectangle.

FIG. 7.-Two HYPOTHETICAL VESSELS OF SHAPE .57 WITH TIE SAME RATIO BETWEEN MAXIMUM HEIGHT AND MAXIMUM WIDTH BUT DIFFERING IN OTHER PROPORTIONS.

To determine the ratio between the width of the opening of the vessel and its maximum width we place the base of the triangle (marked from 5 to 9) on the axis of the vessel and slide the triangle up or down until the hypotenuse touches the left upper corner of the rectangle or, in other words, until the maximum radius of the vessel becomes an ordinate from a point on the hypotenuse (Fig. 8). If the width of the opening is less than the maximum width of the vessel, the point marking the opening will be found on this ordinate inside the triangle, and the division into which it falls will give the cipher repre-

oi.uchicago.edu

POTTERY FROM THE DIYALA REGION senting the required proportion. Of course, if the maximum width of the vessel coincides with the width of its opening, both points will be on the hypotenuse and the digit will be 9. To determine the digit denoting the position of the maximum diameter in relation to the height we still use the schematic drawing inclosed in a rectangle. At the point of maximum diameter (m-m' in Fig. 9) the lines representing the walls of the vessel touch the sides of the rectangle.19 To read off the required cipher we place the base of the triangle on the base of the inclosing rectangle and slide the triangle along until the hypotenuse touches the upper left corner of the rectangle (Fig. 9); the cipher marking the division in which the point of maximum diameter falls is the required designation. The same process will determine the relative length of body or neck if instead of the point of maximum diameter a point corresponding to the division between body and neck is marked on the rectangle (n-n' in Fig. 9). 20

Secondary proportions may be usefully indicated in a more detailed classification (see p. 22), either explicitly, by introducing additional digits, or implicitly, by using the proportions as a basis for group definitions (as in the distinction between groups .64, .65, and .66, for instance). ACCESSORIES

The appearance of a vessel is determined not only by the general form of the body and its proportions but also by the form of the base, by the character of the opening, and by such accessories as handles, spouts, etc. In our abbreviated system the fourth digit denotes the gen19Vessels with multiple maximum or minimum diameters are disregarded for the present. 10The same process may be employed in determining relative position of the minimum instead of the maximum diameter (e.g. in vessels of form .35).
